List of alleged war crimes

It is a list of war crimes and ALLEGED war crimes since it contains allegations about war crimes.

e.g.

"Allegations of war crimes in the 2006 Lebanon War refer to claims of various groups and individuals, including Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, and United Nations officials, who accused both Hezbollah and Israel of violating international humanitarian law during the 2006 Lebanon War, and warned of possible war crimes"

Subtle Ninja-Edits of Numbers

This is currently a non-issue but I will just highlight the need to check figures in case this arises again. This edit [1] there was a number of ninja edits to the section on Crimes Attributed to Ustasha. An edit had changed a figure citing the Wiesenthal Centre from 500,000 to 50,000. User:Atcovi corrected the ninja-edit so its no longer an issue, here [2]. From the Wiesenthal Centre link: "Created in 1930, Ustasa was a Croatian nationalist terrorist organization. Its members' hatred of the Jews was only rivaled by their hatred of the Serbs. Brought to power after Hitler created a Croatian puppet state in 1941, Ustasa terrorists killed 500,000 Serbs, expelled 250,000 and forced 250,000 to convert to Catholicism. They murdered thousands of Jews and Gypsies". [3] — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.112.21.209 (talk) 21:00, 19 January 2019 (UTC) 174.112.21.209 (talk) 21:01, 19 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Recent Edit War on User Adding "Disputed" To Some Events

Recent edits have been made to this page here [4]. Since the previous edits ended in a mini-edit war, I'm just going to go ahead and leave the matter while raising the issue. The edits made are in reference to List of war crimes#1955–1975: Vietnam War, specifically for the events list where the edits places a "(disputed)" brackets into the second column for Thuy Bo incident, Tiger Force and Operation Speedy Express. The user does the same for the list of South Korean events listed goo. A quick check on these show none of them indicate a dispute, there is no link or reference, neither is there any discussion on a real dispute in the actual articles. This seems like a the user is injecting opinion onto this page as a quick scan shows the user is active on the Talk page of some corresponding articles.

My two complaints are that this creates WP:OR and WP:BIAS I had raised this with the user and suggested he re-make the edits and place it in the Notes column with appropriate details and links hence leading to the edit war. As these are unsourced, unreferenced and does not even discuss a dispute in the articles linked, this creates WP:OR for this page and by placing them in inappropriate columns near the wikilink lead this also does create WP:BIAS in my opinion. This page lists many other events which have some disputed merits to it, and appropriately discussed on those pages. None of these are indicated on this index page.

I'm not going to raise anymore edits, nor will I reply. The user in question feels obligated to label all Canadian IPs as a sockpuppet, as strange as this reasoning is and seems to be trying to elevate things to a personal level. This isn't worth my time to do so. 174.113.101.67 (talk) 12:43, 30 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
